Three days after one of South Louisiana's largest snow events in decades, 40 fathers and sons braved freezing temperatures for the innagural father son campout and withstood the test with joy and resiliance. Echo Community Executive Director Brian Butler spoke to the group with the theme "risks worth taking," challenging the men and their sons to consider the reasons behind, and results of, our choices. Everyone ate well Friday night, the boys roasted marshmallows, and after beginets on Saturday morning, Fr. Jonathan Hemelt celebrated mass on the campgrounds with perhaps the highest altar-server-to-congregation ratio the Archdioses has ever seen.
